I am neither a materials scientist nor knowledgeable, but I do have some experience in such things.

Assuming the valve material and its properties are homogeneous, the same all the way through and not just surface hardened, then the grinding process wouldn't affect the strength of hardness properties of the material. That assumes of course that the valve is not subjected to excessive heat (think cherry red) during the grinding process.
